Back in January 2012, I wrote my first Swallows Nest Farm blog post. I began blogging after having to seriously re-think the way I ran my flower farm business. In 2011 I spent 5 months away from home with my little girl in hospital on the mainland of Australia. With a sick baby to care for, changes needed to be made. When I began, blogging gave me a way of focussing on strategies for the future of the farm while not being able to actually get much outdoor work done. As time has passed, it has become an important part of my flower farm business both for the exposure that it provides, and also for the way it helps me to see where I need to go next.
So here we are, more than 3 years and 100 blog posts later and I'm surprised that I still feel I have so much to explore by way of blogging. I'm even more surprised at the attention this humble blog receives, with well over 50,000 visits. I would never have expected it!
So I feel that a celebration is in order!
